Let me restate it again: the draft says "hosts SHOULD use RFC7217 when they
would otherwise have configured a stable IID". By my reading, that is
equivalent to saying "hosts SHOULD use RFC7217 all the time", because
currently hosts MUST configure stable IIDs all the time.

I already proposed a solution: say that generating a stable IID is OPTIONAL.
